ConvoKit is a toolkit for extracting conversational features and analyzing social phenomena in conversations. It includes several large conversational datasets along with scripts exemplifying the use of the toolkit on these datasets.
In preparation for ConvoKit 3.0, we are removing deprecated arguments and functions, such as:
The User component, and all user methods, e.g. has_user, get_user, iter_users, get_usernames
The name arg in Speaker
The root arg in Utterance
get_info and set_info -- in favor of add_meta and retrieve_meta
Various deprecated args in analysis transformers
Motivation and Context
This cleans up the API (see #85) and simplifies development. ConvoKit 3.0 -- aka major version update -- is the right time for these constructors / methods to be cleaned up.
